At least he is arguing with someone intelligent enough to understand the subject matter unlike yourself.
I'm hoping that you aren't serious. I agree with him today but he has been the biggest calsucker in the state.
No one person has done more in my lifetime to divide the fanbase than Matt Jones. A real POS.
You have to figure this off season is CALs most important since arriving at Ky. His ego and stubbornness hopefully will light a fire under his *** to change things and get KY back to the GOLD standard. If next season is a bust, the fans will put so much pressure on Barnhart and CAL something will give.
Matt was asked what would happen if we had another season like this next year. Matt said that it didn't matter what he thought. He said this fan base will not tolerate another season like this one, and that it would get very very toxic. So much so that the administration would have to address it.
I believe he's right.
There’s all kinds of coaches that could coach here and win at a very high level. By high level, I mean winning national titles. Any competent coach would be better than we had this past season.
I voted for Trump twice. Doesn't mean what Matt said was wrong. Trump couldn't stay out of his own way or he'd still he president. But anyway.
Why is the name calling necessary?
There’s a ton of division on this board and that only makes it worse.
This is the very reason the fans will NEVER embrace him going forward. Cal is twisted and should be fired. I'm sure there is some covenant in his contract that would preclude UK buying out the contract balance if he admits he doesn't care about wins and losses. WTF? Get this CLOWN outta here.
He was “wrong on purpose” too many times and had to change his name and become a wedding photographer in Tennessee (for real).
It's that he had to bring Trump up in a conversation of how bad this season was and how Cal handled it.
Why not use Cuomo and how no one can tell him anything? He's been in the news more recently than Trump. Of course not.
That's all my point was. He will turn something political and always take a shot at a conservative, no matter the topic.
One that didn't go 9-16 at a school with the #1 recruiting class and the #1 grad transfer.
So you’re good with just any warm body? Glad you aren’t making decisions
In other words Cal is focused on Allen's mistakes when he plays, while only focusing on the positives of Boston and Askew. I hope Allen stays, but it's hard for a coach to change that bias once he has it in for the kid. You can argue with me all you want, but if a kid scores 23 off the bench and the first thing out of your mouth is a missed screen, then your whole focus is trying to find a reason to take the kid out.
His unwillingness to stop mixing his political view with UK sports. People don't read KSR for political advice or seeking his political insight. When many asked that he keep it to sports, he refused. That decision had consequences. He is a selfish, self-serving prick that uses UK sports to draw the crowd and then lob his political droppings into the crowd, with malice, for those who don't agree. Only a righteous prick does that. To do so demonstrates his lack for respect, in a wholesale way, to anyone with a different take on things. Then he asks UK fans to patronize KS Bar and buy UK gear from him? I will not ever and that makes him organically stupid because I know many, many lifelong UK fans that feel the same way and will not step foot in his ******** place of business and will not listen to the radio program.
This season was a miserable one but not just any coach can come to UK and win titles. UK would eat them up especially with a fan base that hangs on the coaches every word.
There is not many out there that can manage the fans/media and coach at a high level to the satisfaction of our fans.
The names that are brought up on this board are coaching at places with no pressure and can get away with things that you just can’t here like multiple double digit loss seasons.
I didn’t say just any coach. Five coaches have won titles here. Just spinning our wheels with Cal. He will never win another title here. Even if he builds a contender, they will do everything in their power to derail them from winning it. Just the way it is.
Add sarcasm to the things you are clueless about. I need to start a excel spreadsheet on it I reckon.
You think Cal is managing the fanbase/media and coaching at a high level, satisfactory of the fans?! Sorry, but I fail to see your point.
You're a smart poster. Mean that. But you can''t really believe that Cal is the only option for UK. Come on.
Also, Cal isn't handling it like he used to. When everyone was drinking his kool aid, he was fine. As soon as folks started to push back on him he started with the snide remarks toward fans.
UK, UCLA, UNC, and Duke account for 29 of the 80 NCAA titles in history. These schools have maintained (UCLA excluded) winning all these years. Why some think UK has to have Cal to maintain that is a mystery to me.
Cal ain’t going anywhere. So we all need to hope, in the immortal words of Bledsoe, he gets **** right. We will know a lot more as this roster develops over the next few months.
I don't care that much about his handling of the fans. I just want him to go all in on building the best college basketball team/program that he can. Some of that is recruiting, but a lot of it is coaching. I don't want him to think about the draft at all. I just want him doing whatever he can to win college basketball games and championships. Short of that, I want him gone.
